Food: Inventive variety with small portions

Oba Sushi Thai Tapas takes creativity and variety in the culinary experience to a new level, with top dishes like Crispy Rice Spicy Tuna, Salmon Sushi, and Shrimp Tempura. The freshness of the ingredients is the star, but there’s an unfortunate contradiction when the portions are taken into account. Taste-wise, some people find it below par, suggesting that not all their culinary risks pay off.

  • Very Creative

    Inventive and scrumptious dishes with fresh, authentic and unique flavors.

  • Okay Taste

    Dishes are decent, not spectacular but haven't been disappointed either.

  • Bad Value

    Some feel the high prices aren't justified by the food quality offered.

Vibe: Buzzing space lacking appeal

The vibe at Songkuza holds its own unique charm, but it won’t resonate with everyone. There’s some debate about the establishment’s ambiance - perceived by some as sparse and disrupted. It can get crowded on date nights, causing some couples to feel uncomfortable. The drink menu, while detailed, will create a good night out depending on the drinker’s preferences.

  • Okay Buzz

    Busy at times, not terribly busy nor completely empty, balanced crowd.

  • Bad Ambiance

    Some find the ambiance strange, sparse or disrupted by location.

Perks: Service speed dampens convenient perks

The perks Oba offers can sway both ways. Ample parking space, easy reservation protocols and impressive dietary options seem to fall short in face of the infamously slow service speed. Families with kids might be right at home in the normally busy crowd, but larger groups may feel overwhelmed.

  • Easy To Reserve

    Ease of making last-minute reservations and prompt seating mentioned.

  • Okay To Park

    Strip mall location offers both easy and sometimes busy parking

  • Bad Service

    Several reviews mention slow service, even during non-busy times.
